Possibly, but it's more likely that she will eat them.

How does the mother hamster take care of her baby?

when the female hamster gives birth, put the male hamster into another cageand you should separate the babies from there parents when they are 3 weeks old because in many cases the female will eat the babies. Do not play with baby hamsters until they can see because most baby hamster are born blind. Also make sure that you give them extra bedding so that they don't get cold because all baby hamsters are born furless. Also when they are 3 wks old, separate the female and male baby hamsters as they will mate and it's not good for hamsters to give birth at a young age as they will die faster.


Does a female hamster need a male hamster?

A female hamster shouldn't even be in the same cage as a male hamster,unless you are trying to breed them.If they are together the male will naturally try to mate with her,it doesn't matter to him that she might not be in heat. If a female isn't in heat she will attack any male that is in the cage with her.Also if you are putting 2 hamsters together with the intention of breeding you should always hand breed. Hand breeding is when you wait until the female is in heat and you put her and the male in neutal territory. Always wear gloves and have a ruler handy so that if need be you can separate them from fighting,although this rarly happens.After they actually start to mate supervise them for 40 minutes and then put both back in their own cages.Approximately 16 days later you should have babies. They don't.


When will it have babies my hamster?

... not long after you get it a partner of opposite sex. Then, care for them properly. Animals that do not have the proper food, climate or care will not multiply as they consider the young as competition in bad conditions. After successful coupling, the female has a gestation period of 15-22 days, depending on the breed.
